Show HN: ColorTiles Browser Game Hello HN! Here is a little game I made, colorful tiles must be placed next to other tiles and match in symbol or color.

There exist some browser-based versions here and there, but I wasn't completely satisfied with any of them, so I made my own. This is optimized for a broad range of screen sizes and auto-rotates the playing field for narrow (portrait) viewports.

Have fun and feedback is appreciated! :) https://colortiles.net/ June 29, 2022 at 08:38PM
